Iranian Air Defense Systems

[OldTwilight]

Lol almost 2 years, they said B-373 will put in service in next persian new year and we already pass 2 persian new year but IRI just said it's still being tested,so when it will put in service?2020?2035???

We have a Persian verb which typical translation of it is : " A Real man won't change his words " /// look like IR politicians are REAL MAN ... they don't change their first words in past 38 years ....

due to lack of funds all of defensive projects are delayed, nonetheless the last news was that construction of B373 is finished and defense ministry and Army are working together to make it operational.

Based on everything that is shown the Bavar 373 is clearly a real and functioning project.

But people have unrealistic expectations, to expect a sophisticated air defense system to be ready in under a decade is UNREALISTIC.

No doubt there are some prototypes in service right now with Iran’s air defense force, but many bugs and kinks need to be worked out before mass deployment. Not to mention the training of air defense crews on an entirely new system.

Just look at Turkey! It has a well developed arms industry. Yet It’s armed forces gave up trying to develop a long range air defense system and opted for S-400.

Nonetheless Bavar will be deployed, but it is probably a few years away from mass production.

Iran should move these to Syria to test the accuracy of weapons

Iran simply does not have the transport capability to deliver a battalion of air defense systems and supporting equipment and supply. Russia did it using both airplane and ships.

Plus Iran doesn’t have any true military base inside Syria. Thus it can not dictate who comes in and out. Spies exist in the SAA for sure.

Iran has already tried bringing in air defense systems, but With israel watching all Iranian flights into syria it’s hard to conceal such shipments from strikes.

Congrats Islamic IRAN and allies.

After failings in wars, Enemies amassed GCC to counter Islamic Iran that was their very bad strategy and later realized their mistake as Islamic IRAN is not comparable to that level. they thought of turkey and pak which is again wrong. even if the enemies bring in 100 turk and pak they cannot compete the capabilities of Islamic IRAN. That is the reason for the enemies to worry. Hope Islamic IRAN will go on with more advancement and is already continuing breaking the millennium old siege of the enemy everywhere and forcing and confusing enemy to change and redraw map again and again. there will be no catch up to Islamic IRAN.

Hats off for those working day and night to strengthen and progress the Islamic Revolution.

You said "Islamic Iran" so many times that now I wonder if there is a second Iran that is not Islamic.
Also, as a side note: muahahahahhaha

Bavar needs at least three more years to be ready something like that wont be ready that fast
Iran doesn't have Russias capability in making sophisticated AD in less than 10 years no way
yet they made it to some level

It is ready. R&D and testing is done. All that remains now is deployment and mass production.

Bavar is as ready as then Fateh, which has been ready for the past 4 years.

You can’t tell anything from iranian press releases as they are merely propaganda.

Given the fact we haven’t even recieved the footage of it intercepting a BM missile yet (per Rouhanis requirements). It’s still in testing stages with senior units of the AD force.

 

[VEVAK]

What does he said @yavar ?

Nothing special!!!!!!!!!! Just that the MOD is working towards producing a few Air Defense systems and Bavar is one of them and will soon be delivered!
No clear timetable! and soon in Iran could mean anything!

Actually, there has been talk of some structural issues with the Fateh (I'm sure @VEVAK would tell you all about them very enthusiastically), but no such issues for Bavar as per latest statements by military officials.

You are partially right. Iranian press is often very unreliable, but the statements of actual high ranking military officials, especially the defence minister, are a good indication. For example, for Bavar-373 I think then-commander of the IRIADF, Farzad Esmaili, said that all tests had been completed and the IRIADF was waiting for MODAFL to produce the systems. SAIRAN at least seems to be able to make radars quite rapidly, judging by the number of radars visible outside their production centre.

A rumor in Zionist/Wahhabi media, since they are broadcasting truth specially about Iran on 24/7 basis!
